These were shockingly good. Shockingly because they are LENTIL TACOS. From lentils. It is the first lentil-y thing I have tried that I have not felt like I was eating, well....lentils. If you have never met a lentil before and are wondering where you can find them, they are with the bags of dry beans. If you don't know where those are, at least in my store they are by the rice. If they are not by the rice, just ask someone where to find the dry beans. Lentils will be lurking there. They almost look like small pebbles, and are about the same color. And firmness until you cook them. Don't let that keep you from going out on a limb here.
It had a perfect texture for this type of meal and the flavor was perfect. They were a little spicier than our typical tacos, which is not a bad thing, but are way healthier, more cost efficient, and could be made with items stored if needed. I will be making my tacos this way from now on. We also ate ours in wheat tortillas (that seemed to be the consensus from the reviews) and they were perfect. And it didn't gross me out to eat the leftovers like leftover meat meals typically do - no meat! Ha!
